How do I show deletions when tracking changes
When I turn on "track changes" insertions show up in color but deletions do
not show up at all. That is, I can delete text only by right-clicking on the deleted text and clicking "accept deletion" in the menu; from the appearance on the screen, nothing is being deleted at all. I'd like to have the deletions in balloons on the side but I can't figure out how to do this. |

How do I show deletions when tracking changes
Go to TOOLS, OPTIONS, TRACK CHANGES, make sure deletions is set to
Strikethrough. If you don't want deletions to show as balloons, then make sure on towards the bottom of that screen where it says Use Balloons that you set it to NEVER.

How do I show deletions when tracking changes
Word 2002?
Some options got accidentally left off the dialog in Word 2002. They are available through VBA but not through the UI. -- Enjoy, Tony "Mark Joseph" wrote in message ...

How do I show deletions when tracking changes
The answer is the same as it was an hour ago. If you're using Word 2002 you
can only do this through VBA ... Options.DeletedTextMark = wdDeletedTextMarkNone 'if I remember -- Enjoy, Tony "Mark Joseph" wrote in message ...

How do I show deletions when tracking changes
The Final Showing Markup view will show deletions in balloons (if you have
balloons enabled) in Print Layout and Web Layout view only. If you have balloons enabled and are seeing strikethrough, either you're in Normal or Outline view or you're in Original Showing Markup view (which shows insertions in balloons). If your Track Changes tab doesn't say anything about balloons, then you don't have Word 2002 or 2003. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Tony and Suzanne. I think it's to do with the format I received from
someone else. His texts uses strikethroughs. My own documents give me all changes in balloons as I want. "Suzanne S.
